About Albany daily democrat. (Albany, Or.) 1888-192? | View Entire Issue (March 3, 1890)
THE DAILY DEMOCRAT. NOT ALONE. Not democrat! alone are protesting a giinst the scheme of the majority of Mc Kilney's committee to Increase the tariff taxes. The Ttlegrafh of Philadelphia, a very staunch republican paper.has the fol: lowing to say: Among the other industries which are absolutely controlcd by a close combina tion or trust, is that of plate and window glass manufacturers. Last eek this trust met and advanced the prices of all its manufacturers jo percent. A day or two later the committee on ways and means announced thioughthe newspapers that l had agreed to advance the duties on plate and waidow- glass. If the committee had been a partner with the Plate and Window glass Trust it could not have done no more than it did. The present ad va lorem duty on window-glass is from 66.04 'o 13' 35- on plate-glass it is from 77 to 144. Such a duty would certainlv be thought oy any reasonable mind high enough; but the Plate and Window-glass Trust and ways and means committee are resolved that,'if possible, it shall be made prohibitory, 1 thing most dilluult to do, as the French article is so much superior to the American as to render its use necessary to picture and mirror dealers. They must have the clearest glass, no matter what it costs. That the present duty is high enough,or too high, will not; be disputed, we think, by any one who nits noticed trie suit tor an injunction heard by Judge McKennan and Achesoo in tSe United States Circuit Court at Pittsburg, the other day, to re strain the Pittsburg Plate Glass Company from issuing $750,000 capital stock to J It Ford vV Co. The evidence submitted to the 1 n.irt showed that at a meeting of the con ,aiy, held at Creighton on the 29th of JaiK.ary last past, it was officially an nounced that the net earnings on the capi tal of $2,750,000 amounted in 1SS9 to 35 per cent. Regular dividends of 23 per cent, were paid during the year, and at the meeting of the 29th ultimo a special divi dend of iijf per cent, was declared, which represents a net profit of $962,500. Fur ther, trie official report stated that the plate glass industry was exceedingly flourishing, tile Company's sevetal works being pushed lo their utmost capacity, and the orders alriady received for 1890 would make the profits much larger than those of 1SS9. A year ago the actual value of stock of this company was $1,4245,000, and it was then increased to represent its present value, namely, $2,750,000, on which dividends f percent, were paid as the earnings of a single twelvemonth. HINTS TO HOUSEKEEPERS. The pie crust of meat or chicken pies should always be psrforated before baking , to allow thd escape of noxious gases gener ated within. A retired plumber thus gives a point for the gratuitous relief of householders: "Just before retiring at night pour Into the clogged pipe enough liquid soda lye to fill the "trap" or bent part of the pipe. Be sare no water runs in It until the next morning. During the night the lye will Convert all the offal into soap, and the first current of water In the mernlng will wash U away and clear the pipe clean as new." Doorplalcs should b: cleaned by rubbing with a cloth wet in ammonia and water. If brooms are soaked in strong, hot salt and water before using, the splints will not break in sweeping. Almonds are blanched by pouring water over them after they are shelled; when they have remained for a few moments in the water they on be rubbed In a soft towel, and the skin will slip off the kernels leaving them whn and entire. A resturant-keeper sayt celery wants to e In cold water an hour before It ts chewed. To brighten carpet wipe them with warm water In which has been poured a few drops of a mmonia. To cure hiccoughs, sit erect and inflate the lungs fully. Then, retaining the breath, bend forward slowly until the chest meets the knees. After slowly rising a gain to the erect position, slowly exhale the breath. Repeat this process a second tl.ne, and the nerves will be found to have received an excess of energy that will en able them to perform their natural Junctions. If you dip the wicks of lamps In strong, hot vinegar, and then dry them, It will do away with most of the disagreeable smell. If the color has been taken out of silks by fruit stains, ammonia will usually re store the color. An easy method of removing bits of foreign bodies from the eye Is to place a grain of flaxseed under the lower lid, and close the lids. Vhe seed becomes sur rounded by a thick, adherent mucilage, which entraps the f 01 clijn body, and toon carries it out from the angle of the eye, Grease spots may be taken out with weak armnonla In water; lay soft white paper over, and Iron with a hot Iron.

The Farmer's Alliance of Kansas hat prepared a great number ot petitions ask' Ing the governor to call an extra session of the legislature. Owing to failure of the crops, the people In the western part of the state are suffeilnggieativ, and are liable to lose their all. Most of the farms are mort gaged to eastern capitalists, and the legis lature is petitioned to pass stay laws pre venting the ousting of uccupante of mort gaged propeity without giving them to years time to redeem it. Other petitions ask that railroads be compelled to lower their transportation rates. It has been asserted that chewing wood en toothpicks sometimes produces small ulcers in the mouth, and that even the stomach has been slmilary affected by the action of the small particles of wood de tached bv chewing.
